Satomi Kondo was born in Hiroshima, Japan in 1985. She moved to Tokyo when she was 18 years old and experienced the rise and fall of the Japanese subculture “Manba Gal”. Later, she discovered her talent in painting and started her art career. From her rough life experience, she constantly produced satirical artworks mixed with philosophical ideas. At the same time, she also expresses her depressing emotions in her artworks, transforming sadness and weaknesses of human beings into humorous, lighthearted, but sometimes intense expressions. Starting from 2011, Kondo continued hosting her solo exhibitions at Art Lab Tokyo and other galleries. The artist also participated in “VOCA2012” (The Ueno Royal Museum, Tokyo), 2013 “Love Exhibition” (Mori Art Museum, Tokyo), the 2017 traveling exhibition in Japan “The Doraemon Exhibition” (Mori Arts Center Gallery, Tokyo), and several other group exhibitions in Shanghai and South Korea.
